Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On January 18, 2019, GameStop Corp. issued a press release announcing its sales results for the nine-week holiday period ended January 5, 2019. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information contained in this Current Report (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

Total global sales for the holiday period were $2.63 billion, a 5.0% decrease compared to the 2017 nine-week holiday period ended December 30, 2017. Total comparable store sales increased 1.5%, including a 3.6% increase in the U.S. partially offset by a 3.1% decrease internationally. Comparable store sales are calculated comparing the nine weeks ended January 5, 2019 to the nine weeks ended January 6, 2018 in order to ensure the appropriate weeks around the holiday are compared. The primary contributor to the difference between the increase in comparable store sales and the decrease in total company sales is the shift in the company’s fiscal calendar for the 53rd week in fiscal 2017 and the timing of the Call of Duty launch.

Rob Lloyd, chief operating officer and chief financial officer, said, “As we anticipated coming into the holiday season, we were able to leverage our position as a leader in the video game industry to drive positive comps on top of what was a strong holiday period in 2017. Our comp
performance was driven by strong sales in accessories, collectibles and digital which more than offset the decline in pre-owned sales and new video game hardware sales.”

Category Performance

•

New hardware sales decreased 6.1%, as a result of the successful Xbox One X launch in the 2017 holiday period, partially offset by strong growth in Nintendo Switch sales.

•

Sales of new video game software decreased 8.3%, driven primarily by the difference in launch timing of Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 which released in October 2018, compared to Call of Duty: WWII which released in November 2017.

Digital receipts increased 16.8% to $352.9 million driven primarily by strength in sales of digital currency.

•

Technology Brands sales, which are not included in comparable store sales, decreased 19.3%, driven by a decrease in store count and store traffic.

Guidance Update

GameStop is reiterating its previously announced annual guidance for fiscal year 2018 adjusted earnings per share of $2.55 to $2.75. This includes the results of the Spring Mobile business, which will be classified as discontinued operations for fiscal 2018. Comparable store sales are expected to be approximately flat for the fiscal year.

The Company anticipates reporting fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2018 results in late March and will provide fiscal 2019 guidance at that time. The company anticipates that its Spring Mobile business will generate approximately $75 million - $85 million of adjusted operating earnings in fiscal 2018. The sale of that business was completed on January 16, 2019.

Non-GAAP Measures and Other Metrics

As a supplement to our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), GameStop may use certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted operating earnings, adjusted net income and constant currency. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating our core operating performance. Adjusted operating earnings and adjusted net income exclude the effect of items such as asset impairments, store closure costs, severance, non-operating tax charges, as well as acquisition and divestiture costs. Results reported as constant currency exclude the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates by converting our local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current period reported results. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP measures may differ from that of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported GAAP financial results. Additionally, GameStop uses “digital receipts” as an operating metric and defines it as the retail value paid by the customer for digital content sold individually or bundled with non-digital products and sales of subscriptions to our Game Informer magazine in digital form. The vast majority of our digital receipts come from digital products that are sold individually rather than bundled with other products. Under GAAP, we recognize the sale of these digital products on a net basis, whereby the commissions earned are recorded to revenue rather than the full retail price paid by the customer. We believe this operating metric is useful in understanding the size and performance of our digital business in comparison to measures of the overall digital industry revenues and our other video game product categories.
